THE ACORN PARTNERSHIP


I just wanted to thank you for your help in making this happen.  You are one of the most professional and effective search professionals I have known and worked with in Australia.  You work fast, give immediate feedback, give very good and accurate briefs, and were very open and honest which made it easy to work with you. You epitomise what professionalism in the recruitment industry should be.

Pierre Monserrate, Senior HRBP, AMP Capital Investors

I have been dealing with Claire McNamara both as an HR Manager and as a candidate for many years. The quick, friendly and professional way in which Claire dealt with everything made the process completely painless. Her helpful and honest advice has been a refreshing change to many of the other recruitment firms. Over the years I have continued to keep in touch with Claire. This has made the choice of who to turn to for my recruitment so much easier. I know Claire will always be there!

Terrie Cole, Head of HR (Asia), Lovells

I have worked with Claire McNamara for a number of years. Claire has an extensive knowledge of the HR industry and is very thorough, honest and professional. She merges her professional skills with ability to build rapport, communicate effectively, understands individual/company needs and identifies the appropriate cultural fit. I have no hesitations in recommending Claire from a candidate and a client perspective.

Lisa Milling, Organisational Development & Learning Manager, CBRE

I will continue to use Claire McNamara in the future as a client because of her excellent consulting skills. I always felt confident that Claire understood what my key drivers were and would never waste my (or potential employers) time unless there was a good fit. Also I never felt the need to chase Claire for updates as she always keeps you informed which I find encouraging.

Anna Peters, Human Resources Manager - Sydney, Holding Redlich

I was coming back to Australia from overseas and contacted Claire about possibilities before I returned. Before I even arrived home I had a phone interview and a second interview set for my arrival in Sydney. Claire made the stressful move back home one less thing to worry about and I was confident that she had my best interests at heart and would find me a suitable role to walk into upon my return.

Kristy Oberg, Human Resource Manager (Australasia), Tibra Capital

I have worked with Claire McNamara for many years. She would be one of the best in the industry. Pragmatic and highly professional, she is well connected and has strong credibility with her client base. She applies her wealth of experience equally to both client and candidate and has a genuine passion for the business. She conducts herself with utmost integrity and I have highly recommended her to my colleagues and contacts.

Colleen Weiler, HR Manager, Grant Thornton

This may seem a strange note to write as your company did not secure me a role and I have just accepted a position I sourced through my own contacts. However, these days it seems that people are quick to criticise and slow to praise. It would be remiss of me therefore not to mention the excellent performance of two of your staff - including Claire McNamara. Both of these outstanding individuals managed to get me to final interview and potential offer stage for very senior HR roles within high profile companies in Australia. I have decided to take a position based back in London but I look forward to dealing with your company in the future in my capacity of HR Director, Europe for Macquarie Goodman. This is in no small measure due to the performance of Claire and her colleague who seemed to make it their personal mission to secure me a job - I was very impressed and remain very grateful.

Mark Perks, Former HR Director (Europe), Macquarie Goodman

We had great support from Claire McNamara in sourcing quality candidates for our National Remuneration and Benefits role. This was particularly challenging given the expertise and background we were seeking for this role and we have been fortunate in securing an excellent candidate. This is not the first time we have used Claire McNamara, who has assisted us in successfully filling other human resources roles in our team, and I can highly recommend her services.
